Green Day have been touring through the summer with Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, and the Linda Lindas on the Saviors Tour, celebrating 20 years of American Idiot and 30 years of Dookie. Tonight, the band performed in Detroit and abruptly ran off the stage during “Longview” due to a “potential safety issue.”
At Comerica Park, concertgoers were left confused when someone pulled Mike Dirnt offstage, and the rest of the band followed. A show pause transpired for five minutes, then the group returned without explanation and Billie Joe Armstrong proclaimed, “There’s no motherfucker gonna stop us!” Afterward, they shared a statement on their Instagram Story: “Detroit! Sorry for the delay in the show tonight, Stadium security had us clear the stage while they dealt with a potential safety issue. DPD quickly resolved the situation, and we were able to continue. Thanks for understanding.”
